For Such a Time As This

Wednesday, June 1, 2011

"For such a time as this
Isn't it much to great a risk
I've never flown from the edge of a cliff
Never walked on the water
But if I turn away
How would I know what I have missed
Have I waited all of my life For such a time as this?"

While I may not have as many words or details to add to this piece of writing as I do most of my work, I wanted to take the time to write what is going on in hopes and confidence that I will look back and thank God for how He was faithful to me and brought every piece of the puzzle together.

Over the past year, I have felt the Lord laying something on my heart but I can never exactly put a picture with what it is. I am not even sure I know all the details or exactly what He wants me to do but in the last two months, I finally came to a place where I told the Lord that I am okay with where I am at and that I trusted that in His timing, He will show me what He wants me to do. Shortly after sincerely praying this prayer, I feel as though the Lord has placed a vision in my life and He slowly is piecing things together for me.

While I have many fears about what is ahead, where I am going to end up and all that is involved in decisions that need to be made, I feel the Lord softening my heart to certain aspects of my life I never considered. He is changing my mind and my heart about things and my passions are only growing stronger. Things I never thought I would ever desire or want, I am almost so excited about that I can't even talk about it without smiling.

I am praying that my selfish desires will be completely out of this equation as I am truly seeking what God has for me in the future and I only want to do and be all that He wants from me.

I am humbled to think that the Lord would want to use me, but I am excited and willing to go and be all that He asks of me.

I do not want to miss what He has for me.

Patience is hard for me.

Trusting is even harder.

So for those reading, if you would feel lead, I would appreciate your prayers and encouragement along this journey.

I am humbly praying each day for the Lord's direction, guidance, and discernment and for the faith and patience to trust that in His timing, He will work everything out.
